vii)

 

Dispose of the old glass in a responsible manner. 

 

 

This task may be easier with the door removed from the 
appliance and laid horizontally on a work-bench. 

i)

 

Remove any old seal from the door.  

ii)

 

Clean out the groove in the door that the seal was 
bedded in using a flat-end screw driver or equivalent. 

iii)

 

Run a thin bead of clear roof and gutter silicone 
along the groove. 

iv)

 

Starting at one end, press the new door seal into the 
groove on the door.

 

 

v)

 

Refit the door if it has been removed and close. 

 

 

 

Over time, the door seal can become compressed resulting in 
a less than adequate seal between the door and the front 
edge of the firebox. For example, if the wood burns unusually 
fast even with the air slide shut, it may mean that there is an 
air leak around the door.  

In this situation, the door seal does not necessarily need 
replacing rather adjustment of the door handle can tighten 
the seal. 

There are two ways to tighten the door:- 

i)

 

Adjust door latch rod

 – the rod on the right side of the 

firebox upon which the door handle latches onto can be 
gently tapped with a hammer. The rod only needs to be 
moved 1mm or less, which is a very gently tap. Too 
much and the rod will need to be levered out again. 
Close the door to test if any improvement in the door 
closing firmly.  

ii)

 

Remove washer from door handle assembly 

–  

a.

 

Remove the nut from the door handle shaft inside 
the door. 

b.

 

Remove the T-shaped latch and remove one 
washer. 

c.

 

Replace the latch and then place the remove 
washer over the rod. 

d.

 

Refit the nut. Do not over tighten otherwise door 
handle will not turn easily. 

 

If door seal is still not tight enough remove another washer 
or replace door seal.
